Note: as always, thanks to Kevin — I read Allure, he did the rest.
You’re right, she’s not looking like herself…is it something about the eyes?
You know, Kevin put that comment in…I think Allure covers are almost always weird in some way — either the person doesn’t look like themselves, or they just look noticeably less attractive than usual.
It’s not just her eyes…. her mouth, her eyes, her jawline her nose all look different; it looks like the superimposed her image over a Kardashian.
I haven’t read Allure in a few months but I remember (from when I subscribed) a page dedicated to the details of the cover photo shoot. The stylists have openly talked about always trying to achieve a look that is the opposite of (or at least different from) what we are used to seeing. They go out of their way to tone down more polished celebs and glam up the ones who like a natural look. I don’t see it here though. She looks just like the daily pap photos of her walking with the kids.
That’s true. Not sure it is always flattering.
Colin Kaepernick, sure seems like he’s a bit full of himself, not to judge, just was a lot of showboating last year in the games. I am a big 9er fan..but kinda seems like things went all to his head. Not judging, hopefully, there will be less showboating this year? We get it, you’re a great athlete.*eye roll*. That will be the end of my NFL talk, lol!!
I have zero idea who he might be. And don’t want to know 🙂
LOL! Haha. The qb for SF 49ers, was in the Superbowl last year. More than you wanted to know!!
Don’t worry, I’ll forget.
LOL
